How it all began

In my final year of University, just at the right time, I discovered the blogging world. Hours of my time began to disappear as I discovered The Londoner, A Beautiful Mess, Buy Now Blog Later... and too many others to name which were added to my favourite list as time went by. I was amazed, addicted and inspired. Of course, the final year of Uni is the tough year, so having the time to start my own blog wasn't very realistic or sensible, so instead I just wasted spent hours of my valuable study time looking at other people's blogs.

Now I am officially 'free' and have some time to kill before I enter the big bad world and start my new job in August, so here goes... my first blog post. Really I'm already admitting defeat when attempting to be original in any way possible with this blog, as there are millions of bloggers out there who record what they ate/wore/did/ but nevertheless I am going to go ahead and start this and see where it goes more for my own amusement than anything and hope that maybe one or two people might read it once and a while! 

So, in true MySpace quiz style...
